Just learned that my friend started a foundation in memory of her son who just died from twin to twin transfusion. I never know what to say to people who lose their children. How many sorrys can they hear over and over again? I dont know what it is like to lose a child so I am just at loss for words.
 
I learned that the film 'Bambi' is out on DVD now! I'll buy one when I have the time. :)
Haven't seen that film since I was 4 or 5 years old.
 
:lol: You know in the city, I think they will let you keep six chickens for eggs. But due to a childhood incident with a neighbor's Easter chick, who grew into a big Rooster, I am terrified of chickens.

I am thinking that Botts would have a full blown panic attack at the chicken houses where I work. 12,000+ chickens, not caged. The roosters are extremely aggressive as I get attacked daily anymore. Friday a rooster attacked be my jumping on my leg and then stuck all of his feathers out like he wanted to fight. I ended up chasing him halfway down the house with a pvc pipe in my hand whacking him, I finally knocked him out cold but boy after that ALL the chickens kept a nice distance from me, LOL.

Feared among chickens. That's something anyway. ;)

I did solve my problem with the neighbor's rooster with an accurately thrown baseball when I was out playing catch with my dad.

He stopped threatening me after that, but I still retain the fear.

So it might be more of a heart attack than panic attack if I had to face 12000 of them! :eek3:
 
I knew I'd get laughs for this. It probably would have been funnier if it were filmed, however I'm sure I'd face criminal charges for it in some states. :shock: I guess I could say I feared for my life so I felt the need to kill the chicken that attacked me.

Sounds like you've got better aim than I do when it comes to throwing things.
I just go Tiger Woods on em'. :cool2:

Pshawwww, it's only a widdly little chicken, botts. I'm sure you can bash its head anyday, like Dixie. :P KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKE :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

but props to you for being able to throw accurately. You up to a game of hoops anytime? ;)

Not anymore. That was in the far distant past. :lol:

Pshaw, surely you have not lost your touch, have you? One of these days I am likely to be chasing a rooster and knock myself out on the elevated feed line. I am thinking that could be a classic jackass moment.
 
:shock: Between PFH's video of shaking a hen and Botti's and Dixie's tales of battering roosters, I'm getting really nervous. Is there some sort of Deaf v. Poultry thing going on that I didn't know about? Am I going to have to ban my child from our chicken coop for fear she might just snap and live out some bloodthirsty Deaf instinct to pound on the roosters? :laugh2:

:lol: Yes! I just now made the connection. I could probably advise from the side on her training!

And Sheila said you took pictures of your historic meeting. Some of us would like to see them.

Nah, I wouldn't worry just yet. But if a rooster attacks your kid first I'd say give her a stick and let her have at him! :cool2:
